In case you haven't heard, the game this Friday will be on NBC Sports at 7:30. But on top of that, NHL commentator Doc Emrick is calling the game. In what has been referred to as the greatest rivalry in college sports, one of the greatest commentators will be not only there, but the voice of the game. Don't miss it.

Sophomore goalie Michalek played a lot of games his freshmen year, 24 in fact, with 22 starts. However, in the five games thus far this year, he has not played. A cause for alarm? Not normally, given that Donato said he was going to go with whoever was best and not look as much at last year's performance. However, as per Sullivan of the USCHO, there are reports that he has been added to the USHL's roster. Odd? Definitely. However, this is unconfirmed, so we shall see how much of this is rooted in fact in the coming weeks.

Speaking of Goaltending...Grosenick went down during the game against Harvard last week with an injury that was thought to take him out of the game for weeks (3-4 per some estimation). It was thought to be an aggravation of his injury which had him out last season for a few games, but now, supposedly he is only "day-to-day" instead of out for weeks. This would be fine if not for Bennett's penchance for playing injured players as soon as possible (see: Grosenick last year, Gostisbehere this year...). So, we wish Troy Grosenick health and safety if and when he starts again. Union's next game is November 24th against Penn State.
